Well, a new record for me anyway. I have officially played 11 days out of 31 days in the month of October!! 8 rounds of 18 and 3 rounds of 27. My goal is to play all winter, as well. I got my First Run Star Mako 177g and it is freakin fantastic!! The glide is amazing and it doesn't flip for me. When thrown hard it just stands up and goes straight. It holds a hyzer, holds an anhyzer, and does pretty much what ever you want to make it do! I need to order more. I want a 180g and maybe another 177g… Continue

Well, I played in random doubles today and played pretty well. We shot 5 down, but at this one (Tyler Horne comes to this one) 13 down wins routinely. Top 3 pay and they were -13, -11, -9. But the best part of today was ordering my First Run Star Mako. Hope it lives up to the hype.

Well... I played well, for me, and took 10th out of 19 and won $15 in discs!! Great day, long day. 72 holes in 11 1/2 hours. I was +6 at Griggs Reservoir DGC, -2 at Blendon Woods Metropark DGC, even par on Hoover DGC from the short tees (personal best), and -1 on Hoover A-I short (ties personal best) then +4 on A-I long tees (personal best). Overall, a great day.

I am playing in my first tourney tomorrow. The King of the Courses!! Basically a disc golf marathon. 36 holes, eat lunch, 36 holes! So, hopefully I do decent enough to maybe win something. I had no idea what division to play in, so I picked Recreational. I don't play enough to call myself more than that. More updates tomorrow on how it went.

I played last evening and tied my year's best on the regular 18 at +1 (I play all the holes as par 3's from the standard tees) and shot +1 on the third 9 which was ok. Had 5 birdies in 27 holes, but missed a few par putts from within makable range. So, while I played pretty well, I am a little dissappointed in the score.

On the bright side I am starting to narrow down my bag. My primary discs are now a slightly worn Star Valkyrie for most drives (starting to throw a Hyzer Flip with… Continue
